I love the girl too much to actually tell her what I think about her conversation. If it isn't a conversation similar to what you have about Quincy, then it's about her boyfriend and what they talked about that day on the phone (they have a long distance relationship).<BR/><BR/>Anyway, you're an excellent writer. <BR/><BR/>*Blessings*Girl Xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03748621914549668730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9807422.post-1123015215392796152005-08-02T13:40:00.000-07:002005-08-02T13:40:00.000-07:00Hey HC!

I'm really bad about that, I've even been known to hang up on a phone conversation with a friend and IM them instead, because I don't feel like holding the phone...<BR/><BR/>The thing I really hate, though, is when people put those long, goofy greetings on their answering machine. You know the kind, where they either have everybody in the house lined up to say their respective piece into the recorder like some poor man's version of a Von Trapp performance from The Sound of Music, or the ones where they sing along to some grainy music that sounds like doing karoake to a victrola playing in the background. By the time the bizarre greeting is over, I've forgotten who I've called and what I wanted to say.dParker2.0https://www.blogger.com/profile/18260746303519240048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9807422.post-1123006480347280912005-08-02T11:14:00.000-07:002005-08-02T11:14:00.000-07:00P.S.I also hate when people will stay on the phone...P.S.<BR/>I also hate when people will stay on the phone long enough for my voicemail (home or work) to pick up, and then as a message... they hang up.Coffey0072https://www.blogger.com/profile/15781893986200397664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9807422.post-1123006397551208882005-08-02T11:13:00.000-07:002005-08-02T11:13:00.000-07:00I've left a nasty threatening message or two (or t...I've left a nasty threatening message or two (or ten) before in my day.

In fact, if I feel the conversation is going nowhere, I will either hang up casually w/out warning or I will put the receiver down and continue on watching whatever movie I was watching, while they yap away about nonsense. At work, a huge bulk of my job involves heavy phone contact... unfortunately, I HAVE to deal with it... bummer.Coffey0072https://www.blogger.com/profile/15781893986200397664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9807422.post-1123005583281932952005-08-02T10:59:00.000-07:002005-08-02T10:59:00.000-07:00man that's some funny stuff.... yeah I don't know ...man that's some funny stuff.... <BR/>yeah I don't know why guys leave that sorry message....
